[quote]Seeing as there are no good models of either plane for FSX, I think this poll is kinda redundant :D

Nevertheless...

I prefer the design of the A380, but I can't stand the Airbus controls... fly-by-wire my ***

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Unlike several others on this site, I love my tubeliners. However, I don't treat them as real tubeliners, I'm for flying low from VOR to VOR in a 747.

Well, the european planes are more for the smaller european planes and airbus is for the airbus jets (or airplanes if you like). And the german planes thing was just kind of random (though I am german) (LOL)

I'm a McBoeing fan!  BUT!  I just recently found the Abacus "Aircraft Collectors Edition" add-on for FSX and found a cool feature on the A330.....you can cycle through interior views that include passenger seating....both business and coach!  

Sooooo, on those extended flights, I can now cop a squat with the rich folks, or the 'regular' fares, and gaze out the window as the scenery scoots by.........

That's the only reason anything Airbus catches my attention.  The 380 is a monster, but if I get in the mood for a jumbo I hop in the AN-224.
